AN ENGLISH VIEW.

An English paper, the London News,
has been giving its readers some infor-
nation regarding American political
views, particularly regarding the next
presidential election. In the main the
article is wonderfully correct, consider
ing the dense ignorance usually eXhib-
tied by English journals when discuss
ing American affairs, and in one respect
it displays considerable foresight. Re
ferring to the projected trip of Mr.
BLAINE to Ireland and England, the
News asserts that the capital BLAINE
may hope to gain by shrewdly calcu-
lated speech-making on his tour will be
more than counterbalanced by the dis
taste with which the average voter in
America will view the nndignifed spec
tacle of leading presidential candidate
endeavoring to bolster up his cause by
such methods.
1t thinks that Mr.. BLAINE was nearer
the presidential chair in the last cam
paign than he ever will be again, and in
this view it is sustained by thousands of
Americans. The only ludicrous mis-
take made by the paper is in the asser-
ton that CHAUNCY NJ. DEPEw, the New
York railway magnate, is the strongest
candidate the Republicans could put in
the field, and the one on whom they are
most likely to unite. The Democratic
party would be only too much pleased
to see the Republican convention of the
same mind, for, while the Democrats
will of course win again in 1888, they
could win with good deal less trouble
and eXertiOn with Mr.. DEPEw, good
talker though he is, opposed to them,
despite all his millions.
However, we congratulate our En-
gliSh friends upon their increasing
knowledge of American affairs.

of murder against Lint Anderson and
Ed Evans. The testimony shows that

$4,000 bondS," when Lint Anderson
sent two shots through Vanderburg's
body, and Ed Evans fired two more.
Friends of the murdered man have been

would fulfill his pledge as soon as he
could. Last year he told her he was in
better financial circumstances and
would marry her. Under this promise
she accompanied him to st. Joe, where
she lived with him as his wife while he
